I did a search on this but couldn't find a similar thread. I may have a chance to buy a 28-29 Model A "leatherback". This coupe has vinyl on the...
Everyone plays guitar. It takes a real man to hit the bagpipes! I play with a local band and love it. The lady next door said that everytime I...
I've been restoring a model A for the last couple of years. All I hear is how easy they are to work on. Many an old man has saved me from grief...
I have one that belonged my dad. It was pretty rough when I got it. I restored it and promised to leave it how it was. After seeing all the HAMB...
Those are some great looking cars. It's nice to see another Idaho person.
Enjoy it as it is. That car is just beautiful. At the risk of getting shit thrown at me... Don't hot rod it. Enjoy driving around in history....
Whassa window fuzzie?
Thanks for the help. I will try to assemble it as best I can. The guys at Sacramento Vintage Ford said that "It's an industry problem" He went...
I'm looking for some help in figuring out how to install a roll down window for my 1930 Model A Coupe. I ordered the kit from Sacramento Vintage...
I went through the same thing. There are two different flywheels. One has more teeth than the other. There is a 153 and a 168 tooth flexplate....
I figured as much. The UK fella wrote and said he was bidding for a friend. Saw how much the shipping was and changed his mind. It makes me...
I just sold my truck to someone in England. I asked him to call me and so far, nothing. I am crossing my fingers.... I guess a person could get...
Looks great! Nothing like a big damn caddy...
Welcome to the HAMB. This place is great! Throw some pics on.
As a cop with a Harley and a hot rod I can tell you that the police don't enjoy coming to your house any more then you like having them come. (I'm...
So for a quick update. I have a new built "race car" starter. The only race car thing about it is the price. Anyhow, I was able to shim it...
I'll be there for sure. Thanks for organizing that.
I'm going. I'm hoping to get a bunch of stuff to sell that way too. Hopefully there will be good weather and lots of cool stuff.
Thanks for the input. I'll go ahead and admit that I don't know what it means to Shave the starter mounting. Could you explain how to do that?...
Well here's an update. About 20 cranks on the new NAPA mini starter and it broke. Started making that same "KABAM" and gave up on me. I went...
HAMB be praised! I went to NAPA today and bought the super hootie small high power starter. Five minutes later I'm crankin' like Courtey Love!...
Not fer nuthin but here's how it all started. I went to the Boise Roadster Show this weekend for motivation. I don't suppose it will ever be a...
It runs like a top once I get it started. Thanks again for the help. I purchased the current starter from Shucks. It's always starts with the...
Man I love the HAMB! Thank you all for helping me with this. It's awful to have to hold your breath everytime you start your hotrod. It's like...
I'm ready to fall on my sword and admit defeat. I have a starter problem that I just can't seem to figure out. I have a 350 chevrolet (rare, I...
As hard as I look I can't see cars in any of those pictures
Here's a picture of mine, since you asked. I think it's that cats ass.
I realize that this is late (which seems odd because I'm on here all of the time) I live in boise and also have a '36 chevy truck. Let me know if...
Okay, now I have all the parts I've got one more question (I feel like Columbo) Is the 12v. system still a positive ground?
Thanks for the info. I ordered all of the parts yesterday.
